1. Datura suaveolens (probably) http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Angel's%20Trumpet.html 4. Melastoma species or Osbeckia species 6. Pearly Everlasting (Anaphalis species) One is here... http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Nepal%20Pearly%20Everlasting.html 7. Slipper Flower (Calceolaria mexicana) http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Slipper%20Flower.html 8. Another species of Pearly Everlasting? 9. Knotweed (Bistorta vaccinifolia)? http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Rose%20Carpet%20Knotweed.html |

I think (8.) is definitely Pearly Everlasting http://www.cwnp.org/photopgs/adoc/anmargaritacea.html Sayani, would you like to share these with the Flowers of India site? This one is new for the site. |

5 should be Purple Fountain Grass http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Purple%20Fountain%20Grass.html | |||||||||

3. Looks like yellow cousin of रात की रानी Orange Cestrum (Cestrum aurantiacum) http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/46644/ |

Thanks to all.....By the way,what is the name of 9?? |
| Sayani Posts : 14 |
Okhay.......about 3 i have doubts...compare these two pictures...are they same?? http://www.flickr.com/photos/25530142@N08/2453055915/ .......and http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/46646/ . They may be same....i don't know actually. |

9 looks like some knotweed. The genus could be Persicaria, Bistorta, Polygonum... Can't be more specific than that. |

Sayani, I feel the two links u sent are of the same flower. The picture in the davegarden link could be upside down - these flowers hang, looking down... Here they seem to be in the bud stage. In your pic, they have bloomed, but are not fully open. Check out various Cestrums on FOI http://www.flowersofindia.net/botanical.html |

Have some doubts about 5.....it does not resemble the purple fountain grass on the FOI site........ |
| tabish admin Posts : 493 Let us learn to dream gentlemen, and then we may find the truth... |
I agree with you. I don't think it is purple fountain grass. |
